This is a 20″ x 4.5″ 4-layer melt-blown sediment filter cartridge, 1 or 20 micron.
1 or 20 Micron Removal of Dirt, Rust & Sediment
BB/Full Flow Size 20″ × 2.5″ Sediment Cartridge
BB/Full Flow Size 20″ × 2.5″ Sediment Cartridge
American Melt Blown’s 4-zone technology traps the larger particles in the outermost layers. The innermost layer is where the true efficiency rating is achieved.
20″ x 4.5″ 4-Layer Melt-Blown Sediment Filter Cartridge Features & Benefits:
- Removal from 1 to 100 microns
- Quad Zone technology allows the formation of 4 separate filtration zones within the depth of the filter cartridge
- Continuous 4-zone structure provides effective pre-filtration and final filtration
- State-of-the-art computer-controlled manufacturing process delivers a highly accurate and consistent product in each zone for proper fiber sizing
- High-strength polypropylene core maximizes flow and optimizes each of the 4 zones. If required, all Quad series may be ordered with cores
- 100% polypropylene construction allows a wide range of uses, including FDA-compliant material for food and beverage contact under CFR Title 21
- All Quad Series cartridges are free of surfactants, binders, or adhesives of any kind
- Continuous lengths up to 72″
- All End Configurations are available to fit most industry standards
- All end caps are thermal bonded, and no glues or adhesives are used
This image shows the Quad Series cut away, layer by layer. The outermost layers are made of larger diameter fibers to allow larger particles to flow through, while the innermost layers trap the fine particles, maximizing the filter’s life.
Image A is a microscopic photo of the outer surface of a typical melt-blown filter. Most competitors blind off the surface of the filter to create smaller openings to achieve higher efficiencies. American Melt Blown’s ability to control the inner layers’ efficiencies separately allows the Quad BE Series to have a more open outer surface, as in Image B. The fact that the Quad BE Series does not have to sacrifice dirt holding capacity to achieve high efficiency is why it is superior to other melt-blown filters.
